Hui'an came back quickly, and brought two little eunuchs behind him, each holding a few pieces of cloth, into the inner hall of the household department. Come on, I'll go back to Your Highness!" As he spoke, he walked to Prince Heng's side, whispered a few words, Prince Heng nodded, and Hui'an stood aside to serve.For a while, the hall fell silent. Prince Heng leaned against the back of the chair in the upper seat, put his left hand on the armrest of the chair, and played with the handle with tassels on the right hand, staring playfully at the bottom.

When the document came in from the outside, she looked at all the people holding the tribute, and her face became serious for a moment, thinking that Prince Heng wanted to attack Prince Li?Don't let the gods fight with the little ghosts and suffer!The clerk immediately raised her heart again and again, she hurriedly walked a few steps to the center of the inner hall, and bowed to Prince Heng in the hall: "Your Highness, the tribute has been proofread! Do you want to start storage?"

Prince Heng let out a sigh and said: "The speed is good, thank you for waiting! But don't worry, the inspector is here?"

At this time, the soldiers outside the hall came in and clasped their fists: "My lord, I have arrived, and I am waiting for my lord to greet me!"

Prince Heng smiled: "In that case, let's all come in!"

All the miscellaneous inspectors entered the hall wearing the low-grade ninth-grade blue official uniforms, and they all bowed to Prince Heng.

Prince Heng waved his hand: "Get up! Check carefully, don't let my royal family be bullied!"

The hearts of the officials trembled, and they quickly agreed, and then went to inspect the area they were in charge of, because the officials dared not lie to Prince Heng's words, so what is the crime of lying to the royal family?Every examiner has a mirror in his heart!

Huh?The inspector responsible for inspecting the cloth was taken aback for a moment, and then inspected carefully before taking out a towel to wipe off his sweat. The goods inspected just now were clearly above the pass line, so what is going on?So the inspector from the weaving bureau inspected and inspected again and again. At this time, the speed of wiping sweat could no longer withstand the speed of sweating. I saw a drop of sweat inadvertently dripping on the fabric, and the color faded. Shake up!It's not a trivial matter that this tribute has a problem, but I just passed the inspection link, oops!The examiner was very anxious, and like this, his head might not be safe.

The examiner really couldn't bear the pressure, so he knelt down with a plop, walked to the hall on his knees, and begged for mercy: "My lord, please forgive me, this minister is guilty!"

Prince Heng looked at him with great interest, and seeing that his clothes were soaked, he sat on it and said leisurely: "Oh, I don't know! What is your fault!"

The inspector wiped the sweat from his forehead with trembling hands, so that the sweat would not smear his eyes, and after thinking for a moment, he explained, "My lord Rong Bing, the cloth inspected at the weaving bureau before is indeed correct, except for the few things that were missed. The horse is due to the negligence of the minister, the dyeing is obviously uneven, and it does not meet the tribute standard at all! So the minister apologizes!"

Prince Heng took a meaningful look: "Oh? That's a coincidence! The ones you didn't bring over are fine, but the ones you brought over have problems! But it's not impossible, since you haven't inspected them after you brought them over, That’s fine, it’s not your fault! Then the king asked you, are you sure there’s nothing wrong with the other cloth?”

After checking, the officer looked up at Prince Heng, but he didn't dare to answer immediately. Prince Heng smiled: "If there is no problem in the warehouse, and it is checked again, I don't know what crime I should be responsible for? If it is a nobleman in the palace, there is a problem with it! What crime should I be responsible for?" ?”

The examiner's whole body went limp in an instant, and he knocked his head heavily on the ground until his forehead was blue and purple: "My little minister, my little minister, please send someone to check with me again! Just in case it leaks!" After speaking, he let out a sigh of relief. .

Only then did Prince Heng curl his lips in satisfaction, and said to the inspector, "Yes! This king approves your request!"

Then Prince Heng said to the document: "As usual, how should we deal with this kind of thing?"

The clerk hurriedly stood up, bowed and said, "My lord, according to the rules, the tribute should be rejected, the supplier will check himself, and the imperial merchant will come to Beijing for questioning!"

Prince Heng nodded in satisfaction: "Then ask questions according to what you said! You can't keep this kind of imperial businessman who deceives the top and the bottom, my household department should be Qingming!"

The clerk hurriedly saluted and returned: "The official will follow the instruction! I will issue the official document later!"

"There is nothing else to do, handle it quickly! If there is no problem, the tribute will be put into the warehouse as usual! If there is a problem, you will be charged according to the law!" After Prince Heng gave the order, he got up and left, leaving the document stunned. Don't you take the opportunity to make trouble?Is this a bit thunderous and rainy?With doubts and documents, he didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly sent an official document to ask the soldiers to quickly search for the wrong emperor merchant!

Prince Heng left the inner hall, regardless of the crowd kneeling outside, Shi Shiran returned to the office.

Only the representatives of the various imperial merchants were worried. If no one among the tributes dared to make a move, it would be impossible. The merchants themselves are profit-seeking, and the dynasty has always been loose, so they risked their heads to deceive them There are still a lot of merchants below!So these agents are now a little panicked, fearing that they will be held accountable.

When Prince Heng returned to the mansion, the side concubine Wu hurriedly changed her into regular clothes. As soon as Prince Heng took a sip of the tea soup, Huian bowed in and reported, "His Royal Highness, it is as expected! The merchant handed over the greeting card!"

Prince Heng nodded with a smile: "That's not bad, there are still some people who understand! Then arrange a time, this prince will meet this group of people, and meet these unprofitable guys!"

Huian saluted and said yes, and then left.Mrs. Wu twirled a grape in her hand and handed it to Prince Heng. Prince Heng opened his mouth to take it, touched the beauty's fingertips lightly, and looked at the delicate Wu. Prince Heng thought of the beauty's little flattery last night, and she felt a twitch in her heart. The tea bowl, picked up Mrs. Wu at once and went to the inner room. After a while, the sound spread outside, and Ju Xiang, the maidservant next to Princess Heng, listened. Hui'an looked at her helplessly and spread her hands. : "Sister Juxiang, don't report to the prince unless it's a child! This..."

Ju Xiang was ordered by the princess to invite the prince, but no one was invited, and after hearing this incident, her face turned blue and red alternately.

Salute to Hui'an: "Please trouble Eunuch An, the maidservant will go back first, please trouble Eunuch to inform the prince, the princess is not feeling well!"

Seeing Hui An nodding, Ju Xiang turned around and left, she was really wronged by her virtuous princess!

The gate of Bu's house in Shixuan Town was suddenly knocked open by five fierce soldiers. Before the porter could reply, he pushed down the porter and went straight into the mansion. Soldier: "The officer doesn't know what happened?"

The soldier weighed it up and nodded in satisfaction: "Tell your master to come out, and Huangshang Bumeng will go to the Ministry of Households to accept the questioning!"

At this time, some family members had already rushed to inform Bumeng. When the soldiers passed the outer wall, Bumeng came out, and she hurriedly saluted the soldiers: "Master Jun, I am Bumeng!"

The leading soldier looked at Bu Meng and nodded, took out the official document to her, after Bu Meng looked at it, his head felt dizzy, Bu Meng pointed to the official document: "It is absolutely impossible!"

The soldier said: "I am only responsible for asking you! For the rest, you go to the hall and talk to the adults!"

Bu Meng hurriedly instructed the butler, and the butler handed over the silver, and Bu Meng said, "Master Jun, let me have a moment!"

The soldier took the silver: "Hurry up! I have to return to the capital today!"

Bumeng didn't dare to delay, and said to Mrs. Liu later: "Inquiry from the household department, after I leave, go to Mianyu quickly, and tell her that something happened to the cloth, and you can trust her to follow up. Don't panic!"

After speaking, the soldier was impatient: "Let's go!"

Bu Meng had no choice but to look back at Mrs. Liu three times at a time. When he was brought on the horse, he even told him to go to Mian's house quickly. . .
